Front CF lip from Ebay - A good buy?
Hi all,
I am just curious about what others think of this lip:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/2009-2010-Lexus-IS250-IS350-Carbon-Fiber-Front-Bumper-Lips-Spoiler-Bodykit-/161338082949?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Model%3AIS250&hash=item25907fc685&vxp=mtr
It's hard to find front lip for 2010, and although I do want the GFX lip from Sewell the most, it's over $500.
This CF lip also costs $350, so I am thinking to might as well save up more and longer for GFX kit from Sewell. Is that what y'all would recommend too?
My car is 212-Obsidian.
Thanks!

I have this lip (thats my car in the ad) and no complaints. Fitment is a 8/10 and seller was responsive to my questions.
Yes - more aggressive sides and rear are needed to pull this off, but unfortunately way too cold in NY now to work on the car (will install cf splitters & myride rear)

Thanks for the input. I was leaning towards making the purchase, but the point about sides and rear does make sense - Something I haven't thought about. Still debating whether or not to save more for GFX kit from Sewell. I think I can only do the front with GFX since it is subtle.

Its doesn't lower your front so much so subtle sides can do the trick. It comes outwards more than it goes low. In fact I'm on springs and haven't scraped the lip yet on any driveways dips etc
Have my eyes on the gfx too but couldn't justify the price for two small splitters.
This is the lip going straight up my driveway with no angling

I want to see how the lip looks and how "low" it looks on the car overall considering you're AWD on springs (same as me, 09 AWD on road magnets)

I am on F Sport springs, so only 1', thinking you are probably a little lower than that.
